701 Someone Actually Refused My Telephatic Finger (1/2)

There were too many things hidden behind that terrible fight.

How did Flesh Massacre, who had always been good at self-preservation, lost his life in the match? Why did Thousand Illusion Child's performance looked so horrible? Why was it that after the defeat, Calculation Immortals seemed to feel relieved? Why would Xuan Mo look so disinterested this time?

The answers to these questions boiled down to the fact that the internal strife between the Earth Immortals had reached a state of unbridled despair.

This was an easy-to-guess answer, but Wang Lu was curious about how no one would interfere in such a serious situation.

”What's that hard-hearted Black doing?”

Xuan Mo grinned bitterly and said, ”He is the focus of this contradiction… Many people questioned his inappropriate strategy in the early stage which created the current situation. Later, some people still supported him, while others fiercely opposed him. At that time, the quarrel was so awful that it even descended into a big fight.”

Wang Lu asked with interest, ”Did Black win?”

Xuan Mo said, ”He has done nothing and this entire thing hurt him instead. He has been restraining himself… Otherwise, he would have appeared in the match.”

Wang Lu was even more curious now. ”Have there been any casualties? So, Flesh Massacre and the others…”

Xuan Mo had no choice but to laugh bitterly. ”He and the others were injured; otherwise, they wouldn't have performed so badly in the match.”

”Does that mean they forced you guys to go to the match injured? That's simply inhumane…” Wang Lu frowned and thought about what it meant.

At this time, Wang Wu said in a deep voice, ”Who are you talking about?”

”... It's Senior Gem Emperor.”

Wang Lu asked, ”Who is he?”

”He was one of the generals under our former leader. His inheritance has some connection with your Royal Soldier Sect. He is fierce, obstinate, and self-opinionated, but his power is strong. In those days, he was also one of the people that gave a headache to our leader.”

”I've never heard you mention him before.”

”Unfortunately, we are still in a hostile relationship, is it necessary for me to tell you everything? However, considering the current situation of his group…” Xuan Mo shook her head and explained, ”He just woke up a short time ago. We thought he would sleep forever, so naturally we did not talk about it. After this unexpected awakening, he was very dissatisfied with our situation, accusing us of losing the dignity of Earth Immortals, especially Black and Bai Ze, and then…”

A sad expression appeared on Xuan Mo's face and she didn't want to continue speaking about this any further.

Wang Lu had also guessed what happened later. Obviously, in his anger, Gem Emperor launched a purge of those he considered a failure, sweeping them with a powerful force. Naturally, during this period, factions appeared, and they sharply enlarged contradictions.

The Earth Immortal camp was at a disadvantage. It had a very high level of cultivation, but they could not help but despise the later generations of cultivators. Therefore, most people obviously hold a fiery emotion within their hearts. Gem Emperor's hegemonic means catered exactly to this sort of mental gymnastics. Thus, the original leadership of the organization all stepped down, and Gem Emperor took over the power with a tough new team. Then they forced Flesh Massacre and the others to appear in the Deity Stage fight, resulting in their disgraceful performance.

Of course, the snowstorm of shame was just an excuse. To put it plainly, it was their way of clearing up dissidents. The Gem Immortal and his team were so ruthless in their actions that after so much suffering, there was not much left. His action resulted in injuries and casualties.

It was ironic to say that this kind of person would relate with the inheritance of Royal Soldier Sect because, although the way Royal Soldier Sect conducted their practices was rough and straightforward, it paid particular attention to the feelings and situation of their fellow sect members. It was absolutely taboo to lay hands on people in their own side. If someone dared to violate it, they would severely punish the perpetrator.

This Gem Emperor, who was the ancestor of the Royal Soldier Sect, was really merciless to his own people.

It was reasonable to say that when the enemy was fighting with themselves and someone that could stir up trouble appeared, the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals should celebrate. However, how could Wang Lu's vision be that low? How could he not be broad-minded? Thus, there was no sense to rejoice after hearing this news at all. Instead, he said earnestly, ”Do you need us to help you eradicate the tyrant?”

Xuan Mo was silent for a long time. ”This is an internal matter of the Earth Immortals; if we introduce outsiders to intervene, we would not be able to face ourselves anymore.”

Wang Lu said, ”Everyone on your side should know that we are here to have a private meeting with you. What else do you care about?”

Upon hearing this, Xuan Mo felt a bit startled and frowned as he thought out loud, ”When you guys came, did you encounter any trouble?”
